Completed TFN Declaration or Superannuation Standard Choice Form

Completed ATO Tax file number declaration (NAT 3092) and Superannuation standard choice form (NAT 13080) held by an employer: the form title or number together with populated fields such as a checksum-valid TFN, the payee's name or date of birth, the employee identification number, ticked residency or tax-free threshold answers, and the chosen fund's ABN, unique superannuation identifier (USI) or member number.

Type: regex
Engine: boost_regex
Confidence: medium
Confidence justification: Medium-high in practice: the titles and NAT numbers are specific, and the TFN evidence carries the ATO mod-11 checksum validator in the exported SIT (the local test harness does not evaluate checksums, so tests use checksum-valid values). The 75 route with only a person or fund field can fire on onboarding trackers that list a new starter's forms with dates of birth. 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy; tests are synthetic.

Known false positives

ATO instructions, employer guidance and onboarding checklists that name the forms. Mitigation: Enforce tiers need a populated TFN, person, answer or fund field; guidance and checklists have none.
Blank forms, including the printed ATO form with empty boxes and unticked options. Mitigation: Placeholders (underscores, square brackets, n/a, tbc) are rejected, answer boxes must be ticked, and fund values must contain a digit.
Onboarding trackers listing a new starter's forms alongside a date of birth or member number. Mitigation: These are still personal records but reach only 75; 85 needs a TFN or two fund fields plus a person field.
